Funeral mass today

At the end of the visitation last night, EMTs had to come and give my cousin an IV. He had taken too much insulin for the food he had eaten. He and his mother apologized and my brother told him, "Keep on doing that, and I will poke you in the other arm," meaning there is absolutely no need to apologize. Funerals are stressful and tiring. The first two hours of the visitation seemed long, the last two not so much. Happy to see my boss and a coworker, friends my brother grew up with, a former coworker and his wife of my dad's, friends of my sister from the martial arts school, along with aunts, uncles, cousins and their children. I get teary thinking of my sweet aunt, my mother's dearest sister. She lives 4 hours away and my cousins have the responsibiity of driving her to the funeral and back the same day. And the stress of my aunt possibly yelling out something sarcastic during the funeral. It doesn't matter to me if she is disruptive. I will be glad to see her and spend some time with her. She repeats herself over and over. Again, I get sad thinking of my former sister-in-law's elderly mother who drove an hour to visit with my parents while my mother was alive. She, at 89 years old, is facing health issues. She and my sister-in-law showed so much kindness. My other sister-in-law has been grieving her mum for many years. I am hoping that the death of my mother will help her work through the death of her own. I pray that my frail, elderly 90 year old father will have the strength to attend the funeral, the luncheon, the interment and the private meal at his home. It will be a long funeral day. His brother and sister and her husband will be here to support him.
